Teddy Bear

When you have worn your pajamas,
You brush your teeth and go to bed.
But when you do go to your warm and fuzzy room,
You find that your cuddly teddy bear is not on your bed.

You go on a little quest to find your beloved teddy bear,
You look high and you look low, but you still don’t find it.
You lie in your bed all scared and upset,
You toss and you turn, but you still can’t go to sleep.

Your parents come in and read you Bedtime Stories,
But you still can’t go to sleep.
When you snuggle up in your Bed’s warm mattress,
You find something lying there, all still and soft.

You open your mattress and to your surprise,
You find your TEDDY BEAR!!!!
You can now lie in your bed all happy and relieved,
And go to sleep quickly and quietly.

Goodnight.
